In Boston...wearing Bills gear...getting heckled...BUT...


Big Turk

Recommended Posts

I still have not found a Patriot fan that could name 5 players from before the Tom Brady era...I've asked 4 of the people who talked trash to me to name 5 players from before Tom Brady became QB...

 

One got 3, one got 2 and the others got 1 each...i then proceeded to rattle off about 15 players for them off the top of my head...

 

Confirms what we already knew...Patriot fans are the ultimate front runners and bandwagon fans...

 

All they could say to me after i did that was some version of "Yeah well your team still sucks!".

 

I told them I was revoking their fan card but not to worry because they could just pick another good team to root for and get an early head start for when the Patriots start sucking again once Brady and Bellichick retire.

We made playoffs last year and by default do not suck ?

 

I let em have that one...their time is nearing an end and they will go back to playing to empty stadiums like they did during the Kelly era. If they had been as bad for as long as we were I have no doubt that city wouldnt even have a team anymore.

I did that as well when I worked in Boston area. Would also ask them why they think the pats dont cheat, it was sad listening to the reasons. They didn't know anyone besides Bledsoe or Martin. 

 

My brother and I were trying to find correct pronunciation of Brian Daboll's name (he always picks the wrong way to say the vowels. Always) so we asked bills fans leaving the panthers preseason game what the name of the Bills OC was. We asked close to 200 people and maybe 5 knew. Some people wanted to fight when they didn't know.

I also just love the fact that the ones who heckled you are the ones that don’t know shat about the history of their team.

 

If you find legit Patriots fans I think they might not be so bad?  Like ones who can recall the Bills victory in 1981 over them.  Still such an awesome finish!

I was in Massachusetts for three years while I went to school. I have a lot of very good friends from my time there, but I can say with ease that they are the hardest fans to deal with in all of sports. Especially around my age (18-24) all they've ever done is win with the Pats, Celtics, Bruins and Red Sox winning championships in their lifetime. If one team isn't playing well, they just abandon it for whatever team is playing well, or they talk about how bad X,Y and Z are and how they're "tired of losing".

 

Any time you try and have a civil conversation about sports, it turns into "We're better than you", "How many duck boat parades have you had?", "Brady has 5 rings", "28-3" , "Look at all of our banners", "TB12", "The GOAT". They couldn't have a conversation or discussion, because they really didn't know all that much, so they would always default to the 6-7 things they did know. They got pretty brutal, and it became evident that they didn't know how to lose. The entire season they started with the annoying saying that "Our regular season doesn't start until January, the first 17 weeks of the season are irrelevant to us". It was awful.

 

The worst scenario was the Gronkowski incident when he jumped on Tre White's head. They all defended Gronk during the game, saying Tre deserved it, that what Gronk did wasn't even that bad. Then come basketball season there was a play where Al Horford got pushed from behind under the net and they started FLIPPING out saying how dirty it was because he fell. They decided to ask my opinion, and I said " At someone didn't jump on his head after he was laying on the ground. Nothing is worse than that". They didn't like that, and said it was two totally different scenarios, and the Gronk's play wasn't dirty.

 

It was amazing when they were getting destroyed by the Falcons the first half of the Super Bowl how many people gave up, threw things, locked themselves in their room, cried. made excuses. It was a sneak peak into what will happen when Brady and Belicheck retire. I just wish they didn't come back, because that next week was miserable to live through.

 

There are so many more stories I can't share. I HATE BOSTON SPORTS FANS.

I guess it depends on the age of the fan.  I went to my first game, and really started following everything about the Bills, in 1987 when I was 7 or 8 years old.  I couldn’t tell you much about the team before that.

 

If you’re questioning older fans (30+), and they don’t know anything about the Patsies pre-Brady....they’re probably not “real” fans.

I just got back from Boston. Also went to Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard. Wore my Bills hat the whole time, Even went to Gillette stadium. I was looking to get into it with *pats fans. Gotta say, they were very nice. Not what I was expecting at all.
